FastPlumber near me

The 15 plumbers serving Limaville, ranked.

We track 26 plumbing companies working within 20 miles of Limaville and have read 1,278 of their reviews across Google, Yelp and BBB — including every one-star review we could find. After-hours options are thin in Limaville: just 12 of 26 list 24-hour service, so read those cards first if water is already moving. Rankings are not for sale.

Limaville's problem isn't finding a plumber; it's telling them apart — the median rating here is 4.8, and when everyone has five stars, the stars stop helping. 15 of these companies carry 100+ reviews — enough history for real patterns to show. The patterns differ more than the ratings do: 22 of the 26 have a repeated complaint pattern in their reviews — quotes that grew mid-job, unreturned callbacks — flagged and quoted on their cards below. One number worth knowing: only one company in this radius — American Pro Plumbing — sits below 4.0 (3.0). Across the reviews we analyzed, the work named most often is water heaters and sewer work.

Updated Jul 11, 202620-mile radius of downtown LimavilleHow we rank
How we rank — the 60-second version

What we read: for each plumber, up to 100 recent reviews from Google, Yelp and BBB — the full text, not just the stars. For this page: 1,018 reviews across 15 businesses.

What moves a plumber up: repeated, independent evidence of showing up when promised, fair and upfront pricing, and work that holds. One glowing review counts for little; twenty that agree count for a lot.

What moves a plumber down: repeated complaint patterns — surprise fees, missed appointments, pressure sales — especially when they show up on more than one platform.

What never moves the ranking: money. One clearly labeled sponsored slot may appear above this list; it never changes the order below it.

Our take on each plumber is our opinion, grounded in the reviews we quote on this page. Full methodology ↓

Why we're cautious

  • Multiple no-shows and scheduling failures—3 reviews report appointment cancellations without notice, no-shows with 4+ hour waits, or technicians claiming they called/texted when customer has no record of contact (3 of 43 reviews)
  • Owner disputes customer complaints rather than resolving them—multiple customers report owner responses that deny or minimize their account of events, including calling customers liars (2 of 43 reviews)
  • High variance in experience (variance=38)—stark contrast between 5-star reviews for individual technicians and 1-star reviews citing no-shows, ghosting, and property damage suggests inconsistent company operations despite good field technicians (3 of 43 reviews)

To be fair

  • Strong individual technician performance—11 reviews specifically praise named technicians (Andre, Evan, Austin, Adam, Tyler, Preston) for professionalism, knowledge, and friendliness (cited in 9 of 43 reviews)
  • Quick response on service calls—multiple reviews note same-day or timely arrival for emergency issues (cited in 3 of 43 reviews)

What reviewers praise

The most critical take we found
Miracle Plumbing, Heating and Cooling I requested service and an appointment was scheduled, with a $69 fee just to come out. When they arrived, I explained the issue, and they immediately said there was nothing they could do. Despite no work being performed, …

What reviewers complain about in Limaville

The repeated complaint patterns our read surfaced, business by business — each links to the card where the supporting quotes live. How we find these →

  • J&J Plumbing, Heating, Cooling, & ElectricOne detailed 1-star alleges the tech declined a simple faucet fix and pushed to inspect other fixtures to sell repairs; the faucet then leaked badly 2 weeks later
  • Rooter ManMultiple no-shows and scheduling failures—3 reviews report appointment cancellations without notice, no-shows with 4+ hour waits, or technicians claiming they called/texted when customer has no record of contact
  • Rooter ManOwner disputes customer complaints rather than resolving them—multiple customers report owner responses that deny or minimize their account of events, including calling customers liars
  • Rooter ManHigh variance in experience (variance=38)—stark contrast between 5-star reviews for individual technicians and 1-star reviews citing no-shows, ghosting, and property damage suggests inconsistent company operations despite good field technicians
  • Roto-Rooter Plumbing & Drain ServicesCustomer charged $15,000+ for 2-section sewer line repair; sewer backed up again within 1 year — required full re-service. Third section was skipped per customer's financing limit.
  • Roto-Rooter Plumbing & Drain ServicesYelp 1-star: owner allegedly showed up to customer's home after a dispute about poor work, overcharging, and changed quotes — customer had to dispute charges on card.
  • Blind & SonsQuoted $8,000 for unnecessary new drain lines through basement floor on a kitchen drain issue — Roto-Rooter fixed the same problem for $100.
  • Blind & SonsCharged $120 diagnostic fee then presented a $1,000 quote for what reviewer described as a simple 1-hour job.

How we rank the plumbers on this page

  1. We read the reviews — all of them we can get. For each plumber serving Limaville we pulled up to 100 recent reviews from Google, Yelp and BBB and read the full text. For this page: 1,018 reviews across 15 businesses.
  2. Patterns beat anecdotes. A plumber moves up when independent reviewers keep describing the same behavior: showing up when promised, quoting before working, work that holds. One rave changes nothing.
  3. Complaints count double when they repeat.Surprise fees, missed appointments, pressure sales — when the same complaint appears across reviewers (or across platforms), it caps how high we'll rank a business regardless of its star average.
  4. Money never moves the ranking.A plumber can buy the clearly-labeled sponsored slot at the top of the page — visibility, not endorsement. A business we wouldn't recommend can't buy the slot at all, and no payment changes the ranked order.
  5. Our take is our opinion.It's grounded in the reviews we quote and count on this page — check our evidence and disagree with us if you like. That's the point of showing it.
Every quotation on this page is reproduced verbatimfrom a publicly posted review and attributed to its author, star rating, platform and date. Star averages and review counts are Google's (or Yelp's) as of our last data pull. “Rating mix” charts describe only the set of reviews we analyzed, which we state on every card.
